Whitby

We are all travellers in the wilderness of this worldThe best we can hope to find in our travelsIs an honest friendRobert Louis Stevenson

This is a part of a regular challenge project sponsored by Louise ofBeachys Cape Cod Cupboardbased on photos from a 1930’s English photo album.

Louise has the most wonderful creations in her etsy shop and often giveaways on her blog.

Whitby is a beachside town in Yorkshire England. To add authentic charm to this creation we used a heart earring to circle the name on an old map of the area and shells collected from the English Channel.

Other additions are an embroidered hanky and souvenir spoon stamped Sheffield on the back. On the front of the spoon is a crest with the words ‘Live in Truth & Love’, the best we can wish for any friends we meet in our travels.

If you are in the mood for more scented and soulful creations, check Jill’s Bittersweet blog for her March giveaway. The Bittersweet handmade soap range is a delicious treat.

I've just found you through the 2Peas stamping board and gosh, where have I been?? I can't believe I hadn't come across your blog before as it's WONDERFUL ! This little treasure is so amazingly beautiful.
